Recycling: The big Picture
You should recycle glass, because every ton of glass recycled saves the equivalent of 9 gallons of fuel oil needed to make glass from virgin materials. I think its better to recycle then to reuse
things,because recycling-substituting scrap for virgin materials. Its so easy to recycle the any thing you have to is to use your blue recycling rollout cart to collect your recyclables all week long. Then roll your cart out curbside by 7 a.m. on your weekly pickup day. The closes recycling drop-off center to my house is Household Hazardous Waste on Wilkes Rd,923. Here are 9 things plastic can be made into once it has been recycled.Bottles, shower stalls, recycling bins, scouring pads, paint brushes, industrial strapping, drainpipes, and plastic lumber. Here are 5 things metals can be turned into once it has been melted down. Such as cans, automobile parts, siding, appliances and building materials. And things you can do to promote recycling, is go around ask people to give you their plastic & cans to recycle.
